getting to new austin chapter 4 glitch?

[Oldsport 712]

anyone try it yet? i want to get to NA as arthur, i just did the certain mission in chapter and rode to west elizabeth but got gun downed. has anyone on these forums done it successfully ?

[Jedster 287]

I've red in another thread, that you have to be spotted by police in that mission for the glitch to work, but didn't tried it yet...

[Cutter De Blanc 14,768]

Yes. I've spent most of the last 3 days playing as Arthur in New Austin. You have to get spotted by the cops when you are supposed to escape the graveyard

[Mirror Park Resident 7,540]

Can the glitch work if I replay that mission?

[Cutter De Blanc 14,768]

Yes, it's how I've been doing it

 

You have to do it every time you load your save if you want to get there

If you die you get sent all the way back to Owanjilla Dam, so don't die

 

Riding all the way back to Tumbleweed takes awhile, and you can't fast travel around down there

You can set up camp, but as far as i can tell, only in New Austin, setting it up in the Great Plains/Tall Trees puts you back north of the upper montana river

 

If you save your game down there you will reload north of the upper montana river

ill retry later today. i guess replaying the mission is mandatory, i did the mission as it came up, not a replay. got spotted and everything

Exploring the place with Arthur feels so much better. And I also love sneaking around tumbleweed so the lawman wouldn't see me. I used the back door, entered the tumbleweed saloon amd played poker with peace. This is how exploring new Austin should have been in the first place. They should have let you sneak around bounty hunters and lawmen to access there instead of pouring loads of them in your face. It would have been a fun challenge.

I honestly don't get what the big secret is. Arthur was obviously meant to go to New Austin because he has special clothes you can only get there and comments on the infected people in Armadillo. Only two reasons I can think of is that they ran out of time to make a 1907 version so locked it off until you play as John so it seems it's in 1907 despite it obviously being 1899 and giving players more incentive to play as John with unlocking New Austin

Replay the mission "Angelo Bronte, Man of Honor"

Play the mission up to where you and John must sneak out of the graveyard 

Instead of sneaking out, get spotted and lose the police

Complete the mission 

When you resume your game you will be allowed to access the area

Can you play "normally"? As in hunting, robbing fishing etc.? Not story missions. 

[Cutter De Blanc 14,768]

You can, but if you get spotted by law down there they send like 9 f*ckin aimbots to kill you. Thankfully the law in New Austin generally seems to be limited to Tumbleweed. 

 

Other than that you're golden

Can this glitch be used to obtain armadillos and the legendary panther for crafting with Arthur?

[Cutter De Blanc 14,768]

The legendary panther spawns in Lemoyne as part of the hunting challenges.  But yes, you can get gila monsters and armadillos, and any other animals that spawn in the desert.  I've personally hunted down both the legendary Pronghorn,  and Tatanka Bison, and was killed by the legendary cougar.

Only a matter of time until R* patches this so I’m enjoying as much time in New Austin as Arthur as I can.

[Cutter De Blanc 14,768]

What they should do is patch out that invisible sniper.

 

They didn't update New Austin for 1907, the cat is out of the bag, no reason to keep it locked now, it doesn't break anything going there

[volta2001 734]

Ironic how the glitch is found in a mission featuring John and Jack

Rockstar then proceeds to patch this while breaking stuff in Story Mode while adding Online only content

The Dinosaur bones too. Some of them are in the lower half of the map.

Dont forget to buy the exclusive outfits in Tumbleweed and Armadillo and stack up on actual Armadillos and Gilla monsters for the trapper to craft even more otherwise unobtainable clothes for Arthur

Already did it's fun to sneak into Tumbleweed without getting caught, just need two legendary animals also found the Otis Miller golden revolver and maybe I still have left some points of interest for Arthur to draw... I have no plan to go to NA with John lol.

Does it still work after this patch today? Someone please confirm.

I'm avoiding it entirely. I'm sure the update will patch it for single player and Mexico for Red Dead Online AND break some stuff in single player.

Sounds like it is still working, but with online now and frequency of patches possibly every few days, you better hurry and explore it as soon as possible just in case.

[cp1dell 2,552]

It’d be a nice twist if the glitch is that the invisible sniper and endless bounty hunters are in NA. I understand why Blackwater and WE are inaccessible to Arthur - but you should be allowed to sneak through to NA. Especially since Arthur’s lines still function and everything.

Is Mexico still explorable?
